I need to be able to input a beginning employment date, i.e., 10/12/1994
and
calculate the number of months between this date and the current date to
determine the amount of vacation earned per month to be used in an IF
formula.

EXAMPLE: Start Date 06/13/85 current date 04/9/09 = How Many Months
IF Statement would be If 0-60 months 8 Hours accrued each month, if
61-120
months 10 hours accrued each month, If 121-180 months 12 hours accrued
each
month.
